IBM Builds Computer to Win on "Jeopardy"

IBM has been working on a supercomputer, called Jeo-bot, that can consistently win on the TV game show "Jeopardy." Aside from knowing facts, it also has the ability to interpret wordplay and other subtle hints.

To test it, the company decided to hold a practice round and brought on the best human contestants in "Jeopardy" history to compete against. The first is Ken Jennings, who holds the title for the most consecutive wins. The second is Brad Rutter, who holds the title for the most money won on the show.

Jeo-bot ended up beating both of them. Now the plan is for all three to play for real, in a televised match that's set to air in February. For now, check out a low-quality video of the practice round below.
